If there are any LS3/5a owners out there I'd be interested to know what you are running them with. They're a hard load and very inefficient, so they're not an easy speaker to run....
1982 16 ohm Rogers LS3/5a. Using a Naim 250.2 for 1 year and prior to that, a Hafler DH200 for 23 years. With good quality amplification and a clean front end (LP12/Ekos/Argo or a NAIM CDX2), there's no problem.
THe LS3/5a is extremely easy to drive. It is not very efficient though yet 35 watts is about all you want to play it with. We use our S-30 with it and the combination is fabulous!
